Geometry Parameters
Harness bundle entry point:
This point is defined where the harness bundle segment point will end when routed to the electrical connector.
Connector connection point:
This point is used for the connection of one connector to another connector.
Creating the connector axis system.
Select start - Mechanical design - Part design
The connector axis system should be on the front face of the connector attached to a point on 0,0,0 co-ordinates.
This point should be in the center of the front face as this point will be used to connect the connector to another electrical component.
Connector Definition.
The component is defined as the connector using the Define Connector tab in the Electrical Part Workbench. The number of terminals is defined.
Bundle connection point definition.
the bundle connection point is defined using the Bundle Connection Point Definition tab in the Electrical Part Workbench. The parameters are defined appropriately.
Connector connection point
Select the connector connection point icon from the workbench
Select the connector
In the connector connection box is open there is having contact option there select the connector face. And the Coincidence option side select the Y axis and on the Orientation option side select the X axis.
